Location is excellent. It has an easy access to the beachfront where one of their bars is located. Perfect place to view the sunrise and sunset. It is a walkable distance to the Okaloosa Island Boardwalk and the Pier. There is a swim-up bar as well. There is a daily resort and parking fee. Staff are professional and kind. Be mindful, there is ongoing construction at the beachfront so it will be quite noisy but not a deal breaker. The only bummer was our beachfront room was not available because of the construction but they did book us a pool room (porch leads directly to the pool). It was a good-sized room with a fridge, coffee maker, and a microwave. We had a wonderful stay and would like to stay here again in the future.

This hotel is over priced! You pay a resort fee for nothing because there is nothing to actually do on the resort. The staff were nonchalant and I feel like at the rate paid they could be a bit more welcoming. They literally checked me in and didn’t give me any info on the resort (but that may be because there was no info to give because there is NOTHING to do!)

It’s the best hotel to be around everything. Close to boardwalk, beach bar, and heated pool. The grounds are like a resort. Staff was friendly and responds quickly. We’ve been here 8 years in a row
